6.29

"The Buddha possesses," and so forth: someone might ask, "Since the Buddha is the supreme sage, why would he share the physical eye with ordinary persons?" Therefore this clarifies it: however, it is only said that he possesses the physical eye in terms of his having all faculties complete; it does not mean that the Tathāgata has a body of blood and flesh. Hence the sūtra says: "Having renounced impermanent matter, he attains permanent matter, and so forth."
